Avid 2S charge lead cable with 4/5mm connectors

Coming from Avid are their new 2S balance charge lead cables with stepped 4mm/5mm bullet-type connectors. Designed to be colour coordinated for charging 2S battery packs, the pre-configured wires include gold-plated 4mm to 5mm bullets on the battery end to cover all battery types and 4mm bullets on the charging end. Comes with the popular XH 3pin balance plug, which most trim one of the plastic alignment rails with an x-acto to plug right into the charger instead of the balance port. Or owners can use the included XH 7pin if they don’t want to brave that. Balance leads are 63.5mm longer than the charge leads so they can easily be plugged into any charger design.

Tekno introduce new 1/10 & 1/8 options

Coming from Tekno are several new option parts for their line of 1/10th and 1/8th scale vehicles. First up and coming for the EB410 and Et410 are heavy duty differential outdrives and diff couplers. The new heavy-duty outdrives and coupler retain the same physical dimensions as the standard EB410 and ET410 parts but have less material removed for improved durability and impact resistance. They are recommended when running in harsh conditions. The HD outdrives and diff coupler are also ideal for carpet racing with frequent on-power jump landings. They are made from the same material and are a direct replacement for TKR6514/TKR6597.

7075.it LCG System touring car chassis & weight sets

Coming from 7075.it are four aluminium chassis and combo sets for touring cars such as the Awesomatix A800, Infinity IF14, Team Associated TC7.2 and Xray T4’19. All chassis are machined from high-quality 7075 aluminium and they feature a flex design for optimised torsional flex while pockets along the centre line allow the mounting of dedicated brass centre weights in order to fine-tune overall weight and weight bias. The low-profile weights protrude from the chassis by only 3mm, compared to the previous 6mm, ensuring a lower overall centre of gravity and thus faster cornering in high-grip track conditions. Weights available for now include 8g front weights, a 25g low-profile centre weight and a tall 50g centre variant. The keyed weights are mounted using a single screw and are easy to add and remove, with the A800 chassis also allowing to use the 8g front weights as additional centre variants. The chassis come black anodised for wear and looks and they are available separately or including a brass weight set.

Xray XT2C’19 carpet specification 2WD stadium truck kit

Following the introduction of the XT2D’19 1/10th scale 2WD stadium truck kit for outdoor and low-grip track conditions, Xray now also release a carpet specific variant for high grip carpet and astro turf tracks. Taking most of the XT2D’s design features the carpet specification kit only includes a front motor, laydown gearbox as it is the current standard for high-grip setups. Otherwise the 2019 kit mostly relies on the XT2D 2019’s features, such as a narrower gearbox design, updated rear suspension mounts, multi-functional rear uprights, 2.5mm pin driveshafts and new rear suspension arms that allow to mount the shocks in the front or the rear of the A-arm. Included in the kit comes an upgraded gear differential with new, hardened outdrives to accommodate the 2.5mm pin driveshafts while an updated hardening process ensure longer parts life. Also included in the kit are hard-composite steering blocks for improved handling in high-grip conditions, 4.5mm rear hex adapters, and a mix of greased and oiled ball bearings for improved durability and a free-spinning drivetrain.
